Question 1 Report

"Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you..." Where Was Abram when this command was given?
Answer Details
Abram was in Haran when this command was given to him. The command is found in Genesis 12:1-4, and it was given to Abram (who would later be known as Abraham) by God. At the time of the command, Abram was living with his father, Terah, in the city of Haran. The command was for Abram to leave his country (which was likely Ur, where he was born), his kindred (which included his extended family), and his father's house, and to go to a land that God would show him. So, to answer the question, Abram was in Haran when he received the command from God to leave and go to the land that God would show him.
